About this plate
The Argentine Mercosur MOTORCYCLE plate, ONE letter, three digits, THREE letters, the mirror of the car shape, and a fact almost every secondary source omits. Its rollout has a documented wrinkle of its own: Disposición D.N. N° 118/2016 (29 March 2016) had to authorise a NAMED SUBSET of motorcycle-only Registros Seccionales to start issuing the new plate immediately, because those offices had exhausted their old-model stock while the general date was still being deferred, so a handful of Argentine motorcycles carry Mercosur plates issued days before the national start.
How numbers are issued
from A 000 AAA, right to left, same odometer rule as the car series
